A few of my favorite things (at our farm)

I’ve been here on the farm enough (nearly two weeks) that I’ve developed habits.

I tend to sit in the same place, morning and evening, where I can enjoy this marvelous view & bird watch.

Another thing I’m quite fond of, and has become part of my routine is picking aloe, draining its undesirable sap & applying the good stuff all over my mosquito-ravaged body.

It cools, reduces inflammation and keeps this vain, 48-year-old looking young(er).

Moving onto the edible goodness of Colombia. I’m a foodie and like to eat as well as try new things.

After dinner, for desert, I’ve gotten in the habit of having a cracker with a bit of the local white cheese (like a less salty feta) with a slice of guava paste on top.

And, if I’m feeling decadent (like tonight) I dribble a little cream on top 🤭

Having an air fryer has been a game changer — I say it’s like having a sous chef and a nutritionist by your side.

You get to cook in a fraction of the time, with very little oil (so, healthier) and tastier, too, as it’s juicier, crisper.

A case in point, this thin Colombian meat and French fries prepared in around 20 minutes!
